Methodology · worked example, guidelines & full notes
Clinical takeaway

The model uses pre-operative abdominopelvic CT plus CA-125 and clinical factors, with predictive accuracy around 0.76.

When to use

Support the primary-debulking vs neoadjuvant-chemotherapy decision in advanced ovarian/tubal/peritoneal cancer.

How it works

Weighted sum: lesser sac +4; ASA 3–4 +3; perisplenic / small-bowel mesentery / SMA root each +2; age ≥ 60 / CA-125 ≥ 500 / suprarenal nodes / diffuse small bowel each +1. Bands 0 → ~ 5%, up to ≥ 9 → ~ 74% suboptimal.

Key points

  • The model uses pre-operative abdominopelvic CT plus CA-125 and clinical factors, with predictive accuracy around 0.76.
  • Higher scores (≥ 7, suboptimal rate ≥ 52%) favour neoadjuvant chemotherapy + interval debulking or referral to an experienced centre.
  • It is decision-support, not a hard cut-off — combine with performance status, surgeon experience and multidisciplinary input.
  • The CA-125 ≥ 500 U/mL threshold is specific to this model.

The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.

Small-bowel mesentery lesion > 1 cm (+2)No
Lesion at the root of the superior mesenteric artery > 1 cm (+2)No

Frequently asked questions

What are the limits and cautions when using Ovarian Cancer Suidan Score (Suboptimal Cytoreduction Prediction)?
For licensed clinicians and clinical researchers. Interpret results with history, investigations and local protocols; not a diagnosis or prescription, and not a substitute for multidisciplinary decision-making or local guidelines.
Does Ovarian Cancer Suidan Score (Suboptimal Cytoreduction Prediction) upload patient data? Where is it calculated?
Calculation runs locally in the browser; inputs and results are not uploaded. For licensed clinicians only; interpret with history, investigations and local protocols — not a diagnosis or prescription.
